58% of our readers are parents and boys 10 to 14 years old. They have always been our target audience.
8% are boys 15 to 16 years old.
23% of our readers are older dancers.
We have added some content for older dancers (rated “G” so that the younger boys can read it too).
11% of our readers are “fans of the blog”
A parent of a DS suggested that we should allow the boys to contribute essays to the blog. Her reasoning was sound – dancing boys like to hear from other dancing boys.
So we thought we would try it. Here are some guidelines:
1. Please do not submit an essay without your parent’s knowledge.
2. We would like to know how old you are.
3. Do not use your full name. Something like “Chris, Boston, Ma.” is all we need.
4. Your email address is private and we don’t want to know what it is. Instead use an address such as “Chris@nomail.com“
5. The subject of your essay should have something to do with dance.
6. The essay can be a page long or just a paragraph.
7. Pictures are welcome and a great addition to your essay. Just include the URL(s) in your post. The URL(s) will remain private (we will upload the picture to wordpress).
8. Please check your essay for spelling and grammar before you submit it.
To submit your essay just “copy” and “paste” it in the comment box below. Comments are “moderated,” so we will see them before they are published.
We will review all contributed essays and may edit them for content, grammar and spelling. Once a essay is approved, it will be posted on the front page.

The Boys really wanted this. So we added a clustrmap to the sidebar at the bottom of the page.
Of course once we had the clustrmap, the boys wanted maps so we have added maps to the bottom of the page too.
We have added a new category. The boys have choosen 21 of the 43 articles posted in 2008 to be included in the Best of 2008.
